Chapter 331 If you eat this apple, your illness will be cured quickly.
Shen Buyu noticed his exhaustion and unease.
She reached out and touched his face. "Why are you back? Weren't you supposed to be back in two days?"
Si Jingxu held her hand and kissed her palm, his tender gaze lingering on her face. "You didn't reply to my messages or answer my calls. I only found out what happened to you guys after I contacted Mu Zi."
Mu Zi is a very genuine person.
She doesn't know how to only report good news and not bad.
She didn't know how to say something tactful to someone far away.
He blurted out naturally: "The young lady was pushed off a cliff, and Yi-ge jumped down after her."
Mu Zi had no idea how damaging those words were to Si Jingxu.
Si Jingxu, who had just finished a meeting, didn't even have time to change his clothes before buying the earliest flight back to China.
Fortunately, he didn't see Shen Buyu, who was wrapped in bandages and hooked up to an IV drip.
He only saw Little Feather curled up in the blanket, sleeping soundly with a happy expression.
With just a few brief words, Shen Buyu managed to understand Si Jingxu's inner fear.
At the time, I didn't think much of being pushed off the cliff.
Looking back now, it gives me the chills.
"Are you feeling unwell anywhere?" Si Jingxu asked her softly.
This child is afraid of worrying his family, so he is absolutely capable of doing something like having injuries but enduring the pain without saying a word.
Shen Buyu slowly shook her head, leaned closer, and gently touched his lips with hers. "I'm perfectly fine. My brother has protected me very well."
Si Jingxu raised an eyebrow. "Jingyi? You've changed how you address me."
“Hmm,” Shen Buyu rubbed his hands together, “I used to call Jingyi-ge by that name, but it still felt a bit distant.”
“That’s great,” Si Jingxu teased her. “My brother-in-law has officially started his job.”
Will it be even harder to meet in the future?
"What nonsense are you talking about? My brother is fine." Shen Buyu turned to look for his phone. "What time is it? Where are my parents and brother?"
"I arrived just before dawn and didn't see Yanzhou and Yunqi. Aunt Lan and Uncle Shen came earlier, though. They went to eat with Jingyi."
Chen Buyu threw off the covers and got out of bed.
Si Jingxu naturally bent down to arrange her shoes. "You must be hungry too. Let's go get something to eat. We should be able to run into them."
“Okay.” Shen Buyu stood up and threw herself into Si Jingxu’s arms.
With her eyes closed, she held him tightly around the waist, feeling his strong heartbeat.
"Brother Jingxu, I miss you so much," she whispered.
Si Jingxu hugged her back, "I miss you even more, Buyu. You don't know how afraid I am of losing you."
"My daughter is awake," Shen Zhiye's voice came through the phone.
The young couple, who were embracing, separated instantly.
"Uncle Shen."
"dad."
"Hmm," Shen Zhiye glanced at Si Jingxu, then looked at Shen Buyu, changing his tone, "Daughter, are you hungry? Let's go eat."
"Uncle Shen, I haven't eaten either." Si Jingxu coughed lightly.
"Ah," Shen Zhiye said calmly, "Jingxu hasn't eaten either. Go eat, the noodles are good too."
The blatant double standards were evident in the exchange of glances between Si Jingxu and Shen Buyu, who both curled their lips into a smile.
"Where are Mom and my brother? Dad?" Shen Buyu quickly went over and helped Shen Zhiye sit down.
“Your brother needs to change his medication, and your mother is worried about him, so she insists on going with him.”
He was worried about his daughter and rushed over.
As it turned out, they saw the young man from the Si family embracing his daughter and confessing his love to her.
Shen Buyu knew what her father was angry about.
However, this is truly a case of wronging someone.
She whispered to Shen Zhiye, "Dad, I hugged Jingxu first."
Shen Zhiye paused.
Oh dear, you misunderstood me just now.
Alright, as long as my daughter likes it.
“That Jingxu,” Shen Zhiye cleared his throat and called to him, “the beef noodles at the restaurant are really good. I just had a bowl. You should try it too.”
Si Jingxu nodded with a smile, "Sure, Uncle Shen, I'll go get a bowl of beef noodles too."
When the two of them returned after eating, the ward was quite lively.
Song Jingyi leaned against the bed.
Lan Xinyan sat on the edge of the bed and peeled an apple for him. "My mom said that if you are sick, you should peel an apple. The longer and more intact the apple peel is, the faster you will get better. When Buyu was little, she was always sick, so I practiced peeling apples. As a result, you can see that I can peel an apple from beginning to end without breaking it. And her body is getting stronger and stronger."
She had just peeled off the last piece and was smiling as she held up the long apple peel to show Song Jingyi.
Song Jingyi had never heard of such a statement before.
He might have heard of it, but he disdained to use his memory on such matters.
But now, looking at that long, curved apple peel, he suddenly found it quite interesting.
Just as he was thinking of what to say to praise him, a round, peeled apple was placed in front of him.
"Here, Jingyi, eat this apple, and you'll get better soon." Lan Xinyan smiled and nodded at him.
"Thank you, Aunt Lan." Song Jingyi doesn't like apples, but this one smells really good.
"Mom, I haven't had an apple you peeled in ages!" Shen Buyu snuggled up to her and said sweetly, "Do you know why?"
Lan Xinyan's smile widened when she heard her voice.
She patted her daughter's arm. "Let me think. It must be because my daughter Buyu's health is getting better and better, and she's not getting sick anymore, right?"
"A prize for a correct answer." Shen Buyu gave Lan Xinyan a big kiss on the cheek.
"Jingyi," Si Jingxu stood at the foot of the bed, "did the doctor say anything?"
When he arrived, Shen Buyu was still fast asleep.
The two men exchanged a tacit greeting and didn't talk much.
"It's nothing." Song Jingyi took a bite of the apple; it was crisp, juicy, and refreshing.
“We just went to change the dressing, and the doctor said that Jingyi is in good physical condition and recovers quickly. If he doesn’t want to stay in the hospital, he can go home to rest.” Lan Xinyan said to Shen Zhiye, “Let’s get the child discharged. He doesn’t want to stay in the hospital any longer.”
Shen Zhiye naturally agreed, since the hospital wasn't exactly a place to recuperate.
He looked at Song Jingyi, "Jingyi, what do you think?"
Song Jingyi chewed on an apple, glanced at Shen Buyu, and said, "Uncle Shen, I have to listen to my sister on this matter."
“If the doctor said that, then it must be nothing to worry about,” Shen Buyu pondered for a moment. “But we can’t go back to Grandma’s. Let’s go to my older brother’s house together.”
At my maternal grandmother's house, there are two tactless and clueless people.
This is not conducive to Jingyi's recovery.
The conversations with my elder brother are all with family; chatting and laughing are beneficial to both physical and mental health.
Song Jingyi nodded as he ate an apple.
As long as you follow the little fish, anywhere is fine.
Si Jingxu glanced down at his phone, his expression darkening, a chilling light flashing in his eyes.
But he quickly composed himself, put away his phone, and accompanied his girlfriend to get medicine for his brother-in-law.
"Brother Jingxu, when are you leaving?" Shen Buyu asked him.
"What?" Si Jingxu stopped in his tracks. "I traveled all this way back, and you're already thinking about letting me leave after only three hours??"
